Pupil Premium

Pupil Premium

Pupil Premium is an additional source of funding for children's education if they are eligible for Free School Meals because of parental income, have parents who are in the armed forces or who are Looked After by the local authority. This funding is then spent on these children as described in our Pupil Premium Strategy.

School received £10,400 in 2014/15. We used this funding to ensure eligible pupils have additional support in school, whether that be working directly with specific children or reducing group sizes in the classes. We have also used this to support our families via extended services. We track our pupil premium children specifically each term. All children made at least expected progress. 83% of the children made more than expected progress in reading and writing, and 33% in maths. All of the children are very happy, as evidenced in parental and pupil questionnaires.

School has received £11,140 for 2015/16. We continue to use the funding as above. We are pleased to be able to note that our pupils with Pupil Premium achieved in line with non pupil premium pupils. For 2016/17 we will add our Pupil premium action plan, priority and monitoring details to the website to demonstrate transparency of information.
